fessors, Asheville is ituated in a splen:
did region of country. The grandeur of
mountainl scenery, salubrity of air, and
purity of water, renders it most attr-e

desirable as a seat of learning. The cat

"The Queen of the Monthlies."
A lady friend styles Demorest's I!us
trated Magazine as the queen of the
Monthlies, and it is not unworthy of the
title.- The July number, which has come.
early to hand, is as gorgeous as the
month it represents. It is brimming full
of good stories, fine illustrations, house
hold hints, and ga'y seasonable fashions.
Notwithstanding that this publication is
issued from an "Emporium of Fashions,"
the editors do not disdain a glance at fol
ly as she flies, and some of the best
hits at prevailing favorites which we
have ever seen were found in the pages
of "Demorests." To ladies living far
from metropolitan centres, it is especially
valuable and useful, and we are not sur
prised that so many confess it "in disp en
sable." The subsbription price is $" per
year, with a handsome prem iumn.

President JohrJson at Raleigh.
The President's visit to the place oi
his nativity was the occasion for much
real pleasure. His retrospect of 40 years
filled him with emotions that language
could not express. lL returned to a>::'

to erect a monument to thet tn:motr of his
father. The President feelingry referrc',
to the humble origin anda pa.etty of ai
father, butt of him he was pieu,l, for he
was " lonest, industrious and! si::g:n Uly
humane and friendly. A character that
he prized higher than a:l the worldy
fortune that could have been left him.''

LOCAL ITEMS.
T..1. Soc"irrv.-There will be a mcet
ing of this society on Friday evening at
the Court ilonse, to which the ladies and
citizens generally are invited to attend.
C.lresses w,ill be delivered.
WU:m*:, & C.-ineeC last Wednesday
coiunns sho0.vrs of rain have fallen,much
t' th h enc-fit of garden vegetation. The
seaonhas been very favorable so far f r
the kitchen garden. Our citizens have
luxuriated for several weeks past upon
such delicious esculents as snap beans,
sr;uashes, Irish potatoes, beets; and lat
terlv the cucumber lends its flavor to
the noon repast. Green peas and fresh
crisp Icttuc, etc.. are yet in season ;
while earn, tomatoes, okra, melons, cab
b 'a a i sts of othp edibles are iust
"boiling ahead," as Iast as they can to
keep our people from starving. A ;ar

AT"r;Nm:; EADra, and having gained
thmt we , fer you to our advertising
columns, where you will see attractive
headings from Captain Wtbb, who hav

ful trip, makes the important announce
ment of being able to sell goods cheaper
than ever. This annotIcement of ehenp
goods &Nibrac not only another lot of
Clcthing and Gents furnishing goods, in
his new store, u:nder the supervision of
Messrs. Marsh-ill & Bro., at of Dry
Goods, Dress Goods, Groceries, Boots
and Shoes, &c., in his old store on the

sati.-fid as fM irices.
AN 1xrT.ToN is cordially extended, to
the Ladies particularly, and every one else
generally, to attend at the establish'nent
of Mr. D. Mower's, on the corner, where is
0n Cx:ibition a handsome selection of goods.
We have no doubt that should any lady
visitor take :: fancy to any particular arti
cle, that the gzentlemanly proprietor, or his
agreeable lady and assistant might be in
duced :o di"i ose of the same, and at just
such a price as will insure him against loss,
so that he may be enabled to supply the
deficienc again. We do not know whether
entlemc visitors will meet with the same
accolanodation or not, and can only advise
theni to t r'.

is given to the indulgence of going to

not be surprised to hear that lie has gone

iKewise in the best regulated printing

most generally is to blame or is made to
father it anyhow. In our last issue we
neglected to affix to the adver-tisement of
No. 2 .\oilohion Row, the name of the
worthy~ advertiser who offered consider
able inducements in the way of Bargains.
No. 2, .\ollohon, is so well known, and
its reputation so favorably established,
that we are certain iio loss has been sus
tainied in the panst week f-rm the omis
sion of' the na:ne, but still it should have
appecared, and we therefore beg to state
that the name has bccn add.ed in capital,
letters, awd is that of our gery good
friend and advertiser, B. J. Singleton,

Si'c:.- )urs is not the only "peot
machine" as will be zecn in the following
story of a ro:na:ic evening, spent by
one Ezekiel Stiles and Susan Cutter.
Zeke was raised down East on temperance
tracts, stewed pumpkins and codfish,
and met Susan at an apple bee, where
he fell in love with her on th spot, and
told her hc meant to come over some
evening, if his main would let him, and
help her milk the keows. Susan replied,
'"eou git cottt, neow, yeou pesky critter."
but Zeke vent. So says the local of the
Mobile Advertiser. And here's what
happened, after the keows were tmi:ked
and the old folks had retired:
"And there they sat a popping corn,
Zeke Stiles and Susan Cutter;
Zeke Stiles as fat as any ox.
And Susan fat as hntter.
And there they sat and shelled the corn,
And raked and stirred the fire,
And talked of ditTerent kind of ears,
And hitched their chairs the nigher.
Then Susan she the popper shook,
Then Zeke he shook the popper,
Till both their faces looked as red
As saucepans nde of copper.
And so they shelled, and popped, and ate
All kinds of fun a poking.
While lie ha-naw'd at her remarks,
And she laughed at his joking.
And still they popped, and still they ate
Zeke's mouth was like a hopper
And stirred the fire and sprinkled salt,
And shook and shook the popper.
The clock struck hine, the clock struck ten,
And still the corn kept popping
It struck eleven, and then struck twelve,
And still no sign of stopping!
And Zeke, he ate, and Sue, she thought
The corn did pop and patter,
Till he cried out, "The corn's afire!
Why, Susan, what's the matter?"
Says she, "Zeke Stiles, its one o'clock;
You'll die of indigestion;
I'm sick of this popping corn
Why don't you pop the question ?"
The interested reader will be glad to
know that the question was popped, and
Zeke and Suse went and got married,
and that in de course, well, that is all.
One of the strangest things in the
world. There certainly is "a divinity
which shapes our ends." Read the proof:
A bachelor and a young lad' bought
some tickets in a lottery at the recent
Sat1itary Fair at Milaukie, agreeing to
divide the proceeds equitably. They
drew a double bedstead, a baby ct ib and
lunch basket, and the question is how to
divide them or wheth r they shall not
use them "jintly."
An editor of one of our exchanges is
cert:inly the rashest man we know. IIe
wants new sbscribers and makes this
irresistible offer:
"For' two newv suboscribers, furnished
by any good locking young ladly, we
will miarrv her ourself, as soon as the
la w will allow.''
Not many of oar readers know what
the word Jimpleente mieains. Hefre is
what a knowing edit.r m says in this rela
tion:.
'T'he name originated in Georgia, about
twenty years ago, last Spring. I was at
a quilting frolie, at which there~ were a
great many nice girls, andl among them a
pretty,, frisky widow. Sh'e was so
fascinating, active, and beautiful, that
they called hrer Jim pleeute. Jimuple on
account of her activity, and cute because
she looked so bewitchingly cunniing. So
you ill percei cc tha t jimnpleetnte is a .iec,
frisky, active widow, and 'jot a wild
animal. Besides it ought to be written
and printed~withi a small j, instead of a
capital J.

l,I,LAai> RI;rlti;Ar.-.A notice of the
R:sIST.tN TO -It:i AUTUOnITY
Military called on-Short but stubborn '
resistance-Arrest-Tears and lamenta- ?
tions.-The community in the neighbor
hood of the Court house was thrown into
commotion on Monday afternoon last,
growing out of the arrest of a Mrs.
Clinch, and a little freedboy, who had
lied from his paternal cabin, and taken
refuge with her, between wiot had
grown a strong attachment. The cruel
parents however objected to this proceed
jng, and tried to recover their truant off
spring; but white woman had possession, r
and dared to maintain it, while the bone
of contention, the boy, clung to her with
the utmost. tenacity. Parents had re
com.'se to Sicriil; Sheriff essaved his
strength, but failed to accomplish any
thing unaided ; woman tiefied Lim, his
deputy, constables and the militr:ry
thrown in. Military being informed of ]
this resistance to civil authority, bared
its strong cr.r to render justice, and t
ordered out a detachment, who, early in
the morning, whilc vet the dew on the
grass was shining, armed and equipped,
and mounted on strong, well-fed steeds,
and led by the Deputy Sheriff in a crazy
buggy, started to the point of resistance.
Arrived, a proper disposition was made
of the entire force, and we are pleased to
say that after a short but terrible com
bat, ,he redoubtable Mrs. C. was cap
tured, together with the boy. No lives
were lost, the party only suffered from
a violent persipration. The scene after
the party were brought to town was
painfully sa . and no'sy, when having no
farther use for Mrs. C. she was given the
privilege of leaving ; the parting ealled
for tears, yells and lameutat.ons from the t
boy, as he clng to the beloved petticoats
of the white friend, while the strong arim'
of the law violently tugged at his little
oegs, and the prayers and imprecations
of Mrs. C. would have touched the heart
of a Rad.; but the law was supreme, boys
legs strong while the petticoats were
weak, and nolens volens the disputed
property was carried off in the Sheriff"s
arms to his brown stone habitation.
When last seen Mrs. Clinch was rising
the bill on the brown mare closely fol
lowed by the next best friend, a little,
(lark skinned gentleman, tearing away at
break~ neck speed.
DrL To:MIs.-All classes of this corn
ruunrity are now. suffering tor the want
*of something to do--ther-e is no busi
ness-litterally~ nothing doing. The very
streets are deserted, except by the clerks
and their merchants, who stand upon the
cur b stones, from "early mnor'i till dewy
eve '" and so rapacious are they, that the
sight of a stranger, or an innocent citizen,
or some lady promie: ader, is the signal
for a general activi ty, and the victim,
w~ho perhaps thought not of entering a
store, muchi less of buy inig, is, pounced
upon,. dragged in and worried out of their
wits, before being permitted to depart in
pea-ce. This is a shocking state of affairs,
but how to remedy it is the quiestion, we
might suggest, that the merchants each
advertise and dIraw attention in that way
to their goods, draw in their outside
pickets, thereby leaving the walks clear,
atd perhaps they ruight drawv in custom.
Thbis would give us a little to do, for we
likewise suf!cr. Something must be
done, the condition is alarmaing, thais fran -
tic seizing hold of citize*ns andi ladies by
merchants andl their clerks will soon rid
the streets of visitors. Even now one
can scarcely see a lady outside of
her own house or window. It has to
be stopped.
